So you think we'll draw with Palace eh, loving the optimism, hope it catches on.

Coming from someone who thinks Henderson, TFM and Williams will start? :lol:

Anyone who doesnt think we ll waltz all over that lot is a scouse.

Wanting a better player in that position? He didn't say he wants Williams out of the club.

Save me the.....you have seen him enough to know by now.

Devil may care · Sep 18, 2020

I think Pogba will be on the bench as he's not long back from covid and I think Fred will start the season as our pseudo holding midfielder.

Shimo · Sep 18, 2020

The lack of transfers affecting my confidence, even though logically with the way we at least played post lockdown, this is a game we should be firm favorites.

But, not had a proper pre-season, players kind of been all over the place in terms of training, think it's going to be a real slog to get 3 points. Just hope to all that his holy that Ole doesn't wait till the 87th minute to make a sub if game isn't going well.

There are only two more weeks of the international transfer window remaining. Ironically, a defeat here could actually go a long way in saving Olé’s job.

Am I the only one who thinks Pogba will start this?

a young player, playing out of his best position and who has put in some mixed performances

wind your neck in

TrustInJanuzaj · Sep 19, 2020

Need to get a win any any cost. We can’t afford to start slowly again.

sillwuka · Sep 19, 2020

I'm not seeing Matic in many line up predictions, do people just want to see Scott or Fred given a chance over him?

Agree with the result though, Palace can be difficult opponents, but they’re missing quite a few experienced players today. I think we’ll have our strongest side out and smash them. 3-0.

Rozay · Sep 19, 2020

All the noises seem to suggest Greenwood won’t start, which would be disappointing if so. He needs to start every game until a viable alternative comes in before the close of the window.

I have thought this from the off, along with one of Pogba or Bruno also not starting (likely Pogba). It might work out well as lack of fitness is going to show towards the end of the game, so I believe being able to bring these players on will be a massive plus.

Pogba won't start due to covid recovery?

Inigo Montoya · Sep 19, 2020

Tuanzebe is on grass according to Ole.

I’ve heard it’s good for pain relief

No, time scale has elapsed. Fitness issue

Reckon it’ll be like the Spurs game restart; second half he comes on and wins a penalty, Bruno scores...job done

I’m more confident both will start. Most players are equal in terms of fitness at present, and the importance of a strong start will not be lost on anyone at the club. I can see a strong lineup, just perhaps no Greenwood with all this talk of overplaying and needing to protect him.

I don't know about anyone else but I personally want to see a midfield of Fred, Pogba and Bruno be the go to this season. I was very impressed and encouraged by the Sevilla game. Our midfield was great that gane, it was simply unfortunate that our attack and defense decided not to show up.

But I predict Matic to start but it'll be a welcomed surprise if Fred does.

OldTrevil · Sep 19, 2020

De Gea
AWB---Lindelof----Maguire---Shaw

Bruno----Fred----Pogba

Mason----Martial----Marcus

VdB for Paul in second half.

TheMod · Sep 19, 2020

Start of the season...feeling confident

Bruno is my FPL captain so here's to hoping we get a penalty and he gets a hat trick :-)

Come on United!!!

Tincanalley · Sep 19, 2020

I went for 2-1 ... bound to have unpredictable, sloppy bits

There’s a word for that. Can’t remember it.

Nobody knows.

Covid-19 can affect lung capacity even after it's gone. For the average guy in the street, operating at 90% efficiency won't make any difference to the way they live their lives. But for a top athlete, it's could be equivalent to temporarily ageing by 5 or 6 years.

Or not. Again, we have no idea how well Pogba is doing beyond the fact he's recovered.

I know a relatively healthy twenty-something girl who recovered weeks ago but still gets out of breath walking up a flight of stairs. No idea if she can play in a midfield two.

JJ12 · Sep 19, 2020

Martial hat trick

K_Ash · Sep 19, 2020

Bailly starts over VL? that "very fit" comment

Moston Red · Sep 19, 2020

A Beek hat trick

Tom Cato · Sep 19, 2020

This team is better than the one that tore up the premier league om 2020 so enough with the negativity

Yeah you've seen an 18 year old in his break out season enough to know he's not good enough to play for United? Absolute bollocks of the highest order, you'd have sold Ronaldo based on that perception also. Do yourself a favour and just support another team, it's less difficult to swallow when you're wrong about these players then.

Statue of Limitations · Sep 19, 2020

Banking on a no frills, comfortable 3-0 victory here to set us on our way nicely.
Think it is too early to start VdB and so I would go for the below.

DDG

Shaw
Maguire
Lindelof
AWB

Pogba
Matic
Bruno

Rashford
Mason
Martial

Martial x 2, Bruno x 1

It looks like your brain can't process information properly thus when an poster says "hope BW doesnt play LB for us again" for you it means that poster meant "he cant play RB" either....well that is not what that poster 'said'. Read it again. That poster only talked about LEFTBACK. Get him a left foot then. Cheers mate!

Baneofthegame · Sep 19, 2020

2-1 in a nervy game, DVB to come off the bench.

This is a tricky one to predict, because Palace have already played a full competitive game and are likely further ahead in the race back to match sharpness, but United have match winners all over the 3 plus Bruno and Pogba. I'm going with a 1-1 draw, but fully aware that United could really blow Palace away if the attack clicks.

You wish.
